Hi!

When using minicom I can do a AT+CSQ to get the signal quality but when I have an ongoing connection (initiated by wvdial) I cannot talk to my card via minicom because the device is locked.

Is there any way (or tool) to measuse signal quality with an ongoing connection?

Many thanks!

UMTSmon works very well with this card.

Thanks but is there something else?

My problem is that I currently use Ubuntu with Gnome.
I also have KDE4 (with QT4) installed but UMTSmon needs QT3 (the readme says it won't compile with QT4).

I don't want to install QT3 just for this one app...
